DANCE WITH THE COSMOS
ONLY ONE AVAILABLE
Mary van der Aa is proud to present “Cosmos,” inspired from her legendary 2023 AGTA Spectrum Award Winning necklace, “Garanatus: From Rough to Cut.” “Garanatus” celebrates the remarkable beauty of crystals found deep within the Earth. These ethereal treasures, born from the very embrace of our planet, are said to have been created by the cosmos itself. Scientists and spiritual seekers alike recognize that the formation of crystals is a cosmic and celestial dance, where Earth's elements and cosmic energies intertwine to create these magnificent structures. The resulting jewelry pieces are not just accessories but veritable portals, connecting wearers with the energy and wisdom of the cosmos. It is a belief founded on the acknowledgment of the profound interconnectedness between our planet and the celestial entities that surround it. As we adorn ourselves with these celestial treasures, we remind ourselves of the seamless connection between our planet and the vast cosmos above. In each crystal, we find a tangible connection to the forces that shape our existence, encapsulating the essence of beauty, wonder, and cosmic harmony. Wearers who embrace these pieces invite the cosmic forces into their very being, a reflection of the harmony between the Earth and the outer universe.

TRAPICHE EMERALD
Emeralds have been highly-coveted for many, many years. Trapiche emerald is a very rare variety of this gemstone, characterized by a six-arm radial pattern of black spokes. These emeralds get their name from the trapiche (pronounced tra·PEE·che), a grinding wheel used in Colombia to process sugarcane. It is the birthstone for May, and celebrates the 55th wedding anniversary. Emerald has a hardness of 7.5-8.0. Although it has a good hardness, the toughness is pretty low. This gemstone requires special care and is not suited for everyday wear. More about Emerald HERE
